Supplies:
4 pieces of cardboard paper in 1/4 size (assorted colors)
scissors
glue
Steps:
I used 4 pieces of 1/4 sized A4 cardboard paper. Take one piece and fold it in half for the card and then set aside.
Take another two in the same color and fold both pieces in half. Set aside.
Get another one and cut into two. Set aside one half and fold the other.
Now, take the folded one and cut a half heart shape along the folded side. See photo to see form of cutting.

As you can see in the photo when you open it there is a gap between the two curves.
Now, cut a tiny triangle shape from the center of that gap.
Apply a small amount of glue onto the uncut part and then stick it onto the back of the curve of the other side of the heart.
Do the same with the other two folded cards.

Stick them altogether side by side. Place the smallest into the center.
Take the first card and stick the hearts into its center fold.
